this is a answer of your question ok please mark as brainllest

Explanation:

At present some 11 percent (1.5 billion ha) of the globe's land surface (13.4 billion ha) is used in crop production (arable land and land under permanent crops). This area represents slightly over a third (36 percent) of the land estimated to be to some degree suitable for crop production. The fact that there remain some 2.7 billion ha with crop production potential suggests that there is still scope for further expansion of agricultural land. However, there is also a perception, at least in some quarters, that there is no more, or very little, land to bring under cultivation. In what follows, an attempt is made to shed some light on these contrasting views by first discussing the most recent estimates of land with crop production potential and some constraints to exploiting such suitable areas (Section 4.3.1). Then the projected expansion of the agricultural area during the next three decades (to 2030) is presented in Section 4.3.2, while Section 4.3.3 speculates about whether or not there will be an increasing scarcity of land for agriculture.
